Interestingly, Buffett's father, Howard Buffett, was a very conservative congressman from Nebraska, sort of the Ron Paul of the 1950s. Warren, however, tends to depict his father as a poor fool who was mislead by the rightwingers.
As to Arnold, some of us warned that the first thing that Arnold would do on becoming governor would be to raise taxes. If this move doesn't nail the validity of that prediction, nothing will.

"The folksy Buffett even seems to handle personal crisis with grace. Separated since the late 1970s, he lives in Omaha with paramour Astrid Menks; Susan lives in San Francisco. The separated couple share leftist political views, reportedly funding causes like Planned Parenthood and International Projects Assistance Services, which distributes abortion devices in impoverished countries."

Warren, however, tends to depict his father as a poor fool who was mislead by the rightwingers. I always wondered how Warren was so connected to the rich and powerful at such an early age. Most of his wealth came from favors from those connections. Not all of it, and he certainly made the most of it. People should know that most of his wealth doesn't come from shrewd investing, but cleverly avoiding taxes and as I said, those insider connections into government and business.
